Dna Encoding Rodent Kcnq2 Potassium Channel

View page
US Patent:
7041496, May 9, 2006
Filed:
Apr 24, 2002
Appl. No.:
10/128870
Inventors:
Michael A. Blanar - Malvern PA, US
Steven Dworetzky - Middlefield CT, US
Wen-Pin Yang - Princeton NJ, US
Paul C. Levesque - Yardley PA, US
Valentin K. Gribkoff - Wallingford CT, US
Michael G. Neubauer - Skillman NJ, US
Wayne A. Little - Pottstown PA, US
Assignee:
Bristol-Myers Squibb - Princeton NJ
International Classification:
C12N 15/11
C12N 5/10
C12N 15/63
US Classification:
4353201, 435325, 536 235
Abstract:
The present invention relates to KCNQ proteins defining potassium channels. In particular, the invention concerns the human KCNQ2, human KCNQ3, murine KCNQ2, and rat KCNQ2 proteins reported herein. KCNQ2 and KCNQ3 proteins are nervous system-selective and may be involved in neurotransmission and neuroprotection. The KCNQ2 and KCNQ3 of the present invention can be used to assay for modulators of the proteins, which would be useful in treatment of such disorders as ataxia, myokymia, seizures, Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, age-associated memory loss, learning deficiencies, motor neuron diseases, epilepsy, stroke, and the like.
